Recipe is created for
TM 5
If you are using a Thermomix® TM6 measuring cup with your Thermomix® TM5:
For cooking (simmering) at temperatures of 95°C or above (200°F), the simmering basket should always be used instead of the TM6 measuring cup, as the TM6 measuring cup fits tightly in the lid. The simmering basket rests loosely on top, is steam-permeable, and also prevents food spatter from the mixing bowl.Please note that the TM5 mixing bowl has a larger capacity than the TM31 (capacity of 2.2 liters instead of 2.0 liters for TM 31). Recipes for the Thermomix TM5 may not be cooked with a Thermomix TM31 for safety reasons without adjusting the quantities. Risk of scalding by spraying of hot liquids: Do not exceed the maximum filling quantity and observe the filling level markings of the mixing bowl!

Made this today, quick easy and tasty
I made this today and was very happy with result. Added whatever dried fruit I had available such as cranberries, apricots, dates, sultanas, currants and also used sunflower kernels in place of the walnuts. Easy recipe and will certainly make again.
Great, easy recipe. very tasty. i added some dried ginger pieces as well as the powder and was good, not overly gingery. i chopped up the dried fruit when i added them, as i used some big pieces like dried apricots, peaches and pears, and mango. also put a few glace cherries on the top so the kids would like it . Will make again! thank you.
Made this today. Very easy and looks exactly like the picture. Tastes great and is perfect for morning tea. The fruit added the sweetness. I used coconut oil.
